8. INSPECT VALVE CLEARANCE

HINT:
Inspect and adjust the valve clearance when the engine is cold.
(a) Set No. 1 cylinder to TDC/compression.
Timing Marks (1) Turn the crankshaft damper, and align its groove
with timing mark 0 of the chain cover.
(2) Check that both timing marks on the camshaft tim-
ing sprocket and valve timing controller assembly
A38016 are facing right up as shown in the illustration.
HINT:
If not, turn the crankshaft 1 revolution (360_) and align the
marks as above.

(b) Check only the valves indicated.

No. 1 Cylinder TDC/Compression
(1) Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance be-
EX
tween the valve lifter and camshaft.
Valve clearance (Cold) :
Intake 0.15 -- 0.25 mm (0.006 -- 0.010 in.)
Exhaust 0.25 -- 0.35 mm (0.010 -- 0.014 in.)
(2) Record the out--of--specification valve clearance
measurements. They will be used later to determine
IN A50689 the required replacement adjusting shim.
(c) Turn the crankshaft 1 revolution (360_) and align its
groove with the timing mark 0 of the chain cover.
